| Reverse description | A highly detailed depiction of a Mute Swan (Cygnus olor) swimming rightward across a lake, its plumage rendered with fine feather detail and its graceful neck arched in a natural resting pose. A mountainous landscape forms the background, with rippling water filling the lower field and an aquatic flowering plant positioned to the lower right. The legend 'ENDANGERED WILDLIFE' arcs along the upper rim in raised Latin letters, while the scientific name 'cygnus olor' appears in lowercase italics along the lower left field, and the date '2006' is inscribed at the bottom exergue. |

| Additional information |
Mongolia's swan-themed bullion issues from this period were part of a broader push by the Bank of Mongolia to develop a collectible gold coin program aimed primarily at export markets and international numismatic buyers rather than domestic circulation. At 1.24 grams of .9999 fine gold, this is a 1/40 oz-equivalent piece — a format popular with East Asian gift and investment markets in the mid-2000s.
